Amanda cared for my youngest son between Sept 2010 and July 2012 and I cannot fault any part of her care of him. She was always very friendly and encouraged and praised him for his achievements, however small they were. Her organisational skills are second to none and she always communicated with us well, sharing what he had experienced each day. She provided a huge variety of activities; some educational and some just good plain fun! Each evening she provided good home cooked food (sometimes a bit of extra dessert came home with him for us!). We always felt she genuinely cared for our little boy and it was incredibly sad when he left her care as he was starting school.
It's important to know your children are well cared for when you can't be with them but Amanda cared for our son incredibly well and she and her family always made him and us welcome in their home. She's highly recommended by me!
